I am an artist making work that incorporates installation, video, sound, sculpture, performance, & writing to explore the human condition. I investigate ways to immerse the audience in multi-layered psychological & physical situations. I trained at Leeds College of Art & Design (Foundation), Glasgow School of Art (BA (Hons) Fine Art: Sculpture & Environmental Art) and Newcastle University (Masters of Fine Art). My lived experience of eating distress & obsessive compulsive disorder informs the work I create & the way I work. Some of the consequences of living with these conditions are that rigour, routine & attention to detail are fundamental to my way of life, all of which are integral to my creative practice; using the constraints of systems, I allow chance & playful elements to create unexpected results. My work is regularly exhibited in solo & group exhibitions across the UK, USA, Canada & South Korea & is contained in various public collections. I have a number of public artworks, been commissioned to produce site-specific work & have taken part in national & international residencies, consistently since 2005. 2020-21 Awarded Arts Council England Developing Your Creative Practice funding for a printmaking residency with Charrington Editions Byre-Group exhibition in which I created a site-specific installation alongside some creative writing Everything Will Be Alright-an audio installation at Cheeseburn Sculpture, commission by curator Matthew Jarratt Filling Time-a watercolour calendar-based work, currently exhibited at BALTIC centre for contemporary art Lockdown Diary-a daily online process since March 2020, that has been acquired by the Wellcome Collection Home Time-a creative tool for public, inspired by Lockdown Diary, commissioned by New Writing North Inclusion in a new Alec Finlay publication. I work in my studio at NewBridge Projects in Newcastle & as well as my solo work I collaborate with David Foggo as marginendeavour; I am often invited to speak to students, artists & facilitate workshops.
